V1
Since the first sacrifice in the garden,
It took a blood sacrifice to cover sin.
Since the blood of bulls and goats could not appease them,
The altar cried sacrifice again.

V2
So year after year the priests would enter,
To offer a lamb to pay the price.
But their hope of life eternal would all vanish,
As the altar would cry sacrifice.

Chorus
Sacrifice another lamb is needed,
Sacrifice this does not pay the price.
Though the blood again has been supplied,
The altar is not satisfied.
And the altar cries sacrifice.

V3
Then one day there came a lamb without blemish,
To redeem that and fulfill God's Word.
As the blood touched the altar there in heaven,
Throughout the world the altar's cry was heard.

Chorus
Satisfied His blood is sufficient
Satisfied No more sacrifice.
As the blood flowed from the Saviours side,
God's holiness was satisfied
and the altar cried satisfied.

Chorus again

Tag
As the blood flowed from the Saviours side,
God's holiness was satisfied
and the altar cried satisfied.

Does anyone have sheet music for this (at this point, I'd accept a lead sheet with chords)? I've had an itch for this song for at least since before the pandemic, and I can only remember the last line of the tag; everything else is a musical blur to me. I'd really like to hear this song again and/or play it!
